Xiaomi has refreshed its budget-friendly 27-inch monitor, unveiling the Redmi A27Q 2026 with a faster 120 Hz panel while keeping the price aggressively low at CNY 779 (around $122). It’s a straightforward upgrade that targets gamers, creators, and everyday users who want a smooth QHD experience without overspending.
The headline change over the previous model is the jump from a 100 Hz to a 120 Hz refresh rate. Paired with a 2560 x 1440 resolution on an IPS display, the new panel promises fluid motion for gaming and scrolling, along with crisp detail for work and media. Xiaomi says the screen delivers 8-bit color with 98% DCI-P3 and 100% sRGB coverage, positioning it as a capable option for color-sensitive tasks at this price point.
Design-wise, the slim bezels on the top and sides make the Redmi A27Q 2026 a solid pick for multi-monitor setups. The stand supports vertical and horizontal tilt, helping you dial in a comfortable viewing angle. Brightness is rated at 300 nits, and the monitor features full brightness DC dimming to reduce flicker.
Connectivity covers the essentials, so you can plug in a PC, console, or laptop without fuss:
– 1x DisplayPort 1.4
